A RIGHT DECISION -THE HILT0N-ROYLANCE CASE. The decision of the Hilton-Roylance case by the Supreme court, it seems to us, is the only one that could have been made under the law. The parties under the rites of the church to which they be longed were united by a covenant called sealing. It is explained that this was merely a spiritual adjustment intended to give the lady a certainty of possessing a husband in the world to come. But evidently this was distrusted even at the time, be cause a church divorce was resorted to to break the tie. The proceedings for divorce were a full acknowledgment of the marriage. The laws pre scribe but one way through which a divorce can be obtained and this way was not resorted to. But there is much more to this matter. The Mormons proceed under a so-called prophecy which to them is a real prophecy. When that is examined we dis cover that the prophecy makes sealing a marriage for time and eternity, and pronounces fearful pen alties against all who would change its expressed command in the least. It is clear that this was perfectly understood by the parties at the time, else no form of divorce would have been resorted to. Again, there can be no other understanding of the ceremony, for construed as it was sought to bo construed, there could be no possible legal check on wholesale polygamy under the name of sealing, ft is clear that the man and woman who were Principals in this matter were absolutely married. Tho ofilciatlng priest had power to perform the ceremony, the form followed was the accepted one in the church. Nothing more would have been necessary had they began and continued to live to B gether. That they never did does not alter in the j least the legal status of their relations. H The truth is they were married and never di- vorced. To aeny the marriage is to fly in the face of the prophecy of Joseph Smith, and the expound ing of the prophecy by all the distinguished suc cessors of Joseph Smith in the Presidency of the church. Being married, they were never by any legal process, by any process accepted by the law, divorced. And there you are. The News says that in order to reach its con clusions the court had to go outside the record of the case. That is true. The court was called upon to pass upon the validity of a marriage that was solemn ized when Utah was practically under eccleastical rule. The court naturally had to investigate what made a valid marriage at that time. The News tells of "numerous cases of sealing in which the parties were united for time only." Has that been where both the man and woman were Mormons? If so, by what authority was the mar riage revelation as given by Joseph Smith set aside? Again, the News says, "a sealing may be for eternity and not for time; that this is a matter which is not explained in church meetings and with which courts have nothing to do." That may be true, but the case in hand was so manifest that the parties sought a divorce. The fact of their seeking a divorce was prima facia evidence that they believed they were husband and wife. The argument of the News that there is nothing in the certificate given by the minister who per formed the ceremony "that settles the question as to the scope of the ceremony." That wa3 why the court went to the books of the Mormon creed to ascertain just what scope such a sealing had. Again the News says: "The President of the Church neve issued such documents (a certificate of divorce) in the case of a legal wife unless it has first been passed upon by a civil court." That may be true now, but how was it when this di vorce was granted? Is it not true that divorces were given with as little ceremony as the old Israelites employed when they gave their wives a writing that they were tired of them? It is one of the painful reminders of what trans pired in Utah when the power that ruled hero defied the power of the sovereignity of our Repub lic. It may be unpleasant and uncomfortable to have such things sprung at this date, but the law is law. It is good to celebrate Pioneer day. The miracles wrought in Utah since the coming of the first band do not in the least diminish their place in history, rather their memories take on more and more ma jestic proportions. They faced the wilderness, the desert, a poverty that was heart-breaking, priva tions that were appalling, hardships that were hard to bear, yet they faltered not, but every day held a praise service and ploddingly, and apparent ly unconscious of the splendor of their work, laid the rude foundation of a state. Their coming was an epoch in Utah, the anniversaries of the day of their arrival cannot be too much celebrated. The wires report that Judge Thomas P. Hawley of the United States court at Carson, Nov., will re tire from the Bench and become a candidate for United States Senator. He has been 30 years on the bench, eighteen as Supreme court judge of Ne vada, and twelve as United States judge. Judge Hawley belong to "the tribe of God Al mighty's gentlemen." H JOHN W. MACKAY. If there is a young miner in Utah with good H H health, strong arms and a clear brain, let such an m fl one take courage. He has as much capital' as i'J fl John W. Mackay had 42 years ago. If he says i tj, H to himself: "I was born without a name that is ill I known among men, without one influential friend, M H without money," let him still take courage, he has l; ll as much to start in life with as had Mr. Mackay. jf H If with it he has the courage, the resolution, the 1 1 L H fortitude, the high purposes which from the first Ifjjn r 'H were Mr. Mackay's, and if he, like Mr. Mackay, be- jp H lieves that the decree which made toil imperative Ili.. vfl upon men was just and merciful, he will succeed. jN 'I He may not accumulate as many millions as the Hi k fl great financier did, but there will, as his soul takes j I f4 fl its flight, come streaming back the same clear light 'H that reflects in everlasting whiteness the character I j $H of John Mackay. m fl If misfortune pursues him up to middle age, let, ''..H him not despair. Forty-two years ago when the H winds were howling around Mount Davidson, when iff, I fl it was bitterly cold and there was not one comfort jl fl for the men who were gathered on the Comstock, Wg i fl Mr. Mackay said: "If I can get my traps together a and sell my interests here for $5000 I will And me l 'tjR a home in some pleasanter country." Ww Ifl But if any young man determines that he will nil J s,eek to emulate Mr. Mackay, he must not forget ffill' L"fl that there are other essentials which he must mfcf fl possess besides those named above. He must keep W J f fl his heart warm and generous. He must so pass 'fl his days that he can take his self-respect to bed i fl with him every night; his private life must never 4 1 fl be questioned and when misfortunes, those shafts If? fl of fate, come hurtling about him, he must bare Ifr fl his brow to them and smile as they smite him. H J'J fl The first $300,000 which Mr. Mackay made he lost. Fp H When the Sierra Nevada Bonanza collapsed he lost Mi, !fl $4,000,000. In the wheat deal, engineered by a Iwf (jyjfl trusted cashier in the Nevada bank, Mr. Mackay's Kj f H fl personal loss was $6,000,000 and for weeks he did 11 fl not know that one dollar would be saved from the L fl mighty wreck, but his bearing was more lordly ffi jl than ever, the smile on his high face was serene mw ''lifl as ever and the fire in his clear eyes was undim- J a If? "'vfl med. The loss killed his partner, it but gave a ilJfl'fl new temper to the steel of Mackay's resolution. if fl John Mackay's death is an international loss. Hf fl He was an honor to his race; he was a strong fac- iff 1 fl tor in the business of two continents; his example fl was the highest of all the rich men of America. ffllJi' fl He moved a peer among the highest; he was ready mEIi fl to measure swords with the keenest, but his heart BPlk .fl was down among God's poor and he wanted in- liflHI creased blessing upon his country, that more op- 91 HH portunities might be opened to those poor. Kj fl His highest native attribute was his courage, 9f 191 both moral and physical. To do an unworthy act SI flflB he held as cowardice, and with him cowardice was slJfil the unpardonable sin. When he was poor his acts iffll of charity were countless, as his wealth increased Ufiimill his heart kept expanding, his old abruptness ImmMII passed away and he was gentler, kindlier than flvlfll before. li'HI He kept his mind under constant training; he EfliH was as gracious, graceful, as unaffected a gentle- jfsiflBHJ man as lives; he read much, was a shrewd judge of flflflfl art, a passionate lover of music. Once when the H bonanza was giving up $1,000,000 a week and all flHHfl was excitement, he one day roused himself from a HH day dream and said, "What is so splendid as a fllH perfect tenor voice?"

He stormed the strongholds where nature had locked her treasures and took them in fair fight. In obtaining them no taint or stain was left upon his integrity or manhood, and his character shining back along the path which marked his high soul's flight is revealed white as a planet's light. Most wealthy men are estimated by the magni tude of their fortune. Had Mr. Mackay remained poor he would still have been a chief among men, for there was a splendor of manhood about him compared with which gold is lusjterless. He was a great captain of industry, as winsome as he was commanding. Had he been made a prisoner by savages he would in a month have been made chief by natural selection. It is pitable to think of him as dead, but now that his transition has come, the memories of what he was are covered already with halos and they will finally cause his image to stand out magnified in its niche, in the great Hall of Fame where are placed the statues of the world's industrial Captains. A BOGUS COMPARISON. Mr. Bryan's Commoner draws a contrast be tween the course pursued toward Japan and to ward the Philippines. It describes Japan as peo pled by Pagans, the Philippines as peopled by Christians, says "They have worshipped the true God, erected homes and struggled for freedom." It points to Japanese progress and adds: "Peace marked the dealings with the heathen Japanese; slaughter and sword mark the dealings with the Christian Filipinos." And it would be difficult to crowd more utter rot into so small a space. Japan was a great na tion when Marco Polo visited there seven hundred years ago. It had about the most perfect govern ment on earth, for it had even then caught the secret of feeding a vast population on a small area, and so adjusting matters that few of all the mil lions were desperately poor and none very rich.

In the Philippines are some thirty-three tribes. The one most advanced when under Spanish rule sometimes fought for some concessions from Spain, never for freedom. The Commoner has often praised the heroism of Aguinaldo. We can esti mate both his enlightment and Christianity from the fact that he had his foremost lieutenant as sassinated through jealousy. The struggle which the Commoner pictures so touchingly was but a struggle for loot and power, the struggle of some adventurers of one tribe to rob their fellow tribesmen and to enslave the neighboring tribes. The Japanese are of an ancient, trained, level headed race. The Filipino is a mongrel mixture of Spanish, Malay and Chinese. The native Japanese is a born worker, the native Filipino is a treacherous snealc. The Japanese has a grateful nature, the Filipino will contract for a consideration to assassinate his greatest bene factor. The testimony of American officers who have served in the islands is all one way and exactlj the contrary of the testimony of the Commoner. The testimony of the best educated Filipinos is that their countrymen are not fit to be trusted with self-government. The decent class among the Filipinos, those whom Mr. Bryan weeps over, are rejoiced at the change that has come, for it insures them full re ward for their earnings, safety and a promise o( education for their children and as much liberty as Mr. Bryan himself enjoys. The tears of the Commoner are crocodile and vain. nn I "Look Out for the Little Things and you need n't worry about the big ones." That is the Burlington idea. Adherence to it has placed the Burlington in the front rank of American raiIoads absolutely with out a rival in point of good service. The Chicago Special leaving Denver at 4 p. m., the St. Louis Special leaving at 3 p m., and the Vestibuled Flyer leaving at 10 p. m., are offered as good examples of the Burlington idea. 1 Tickets at offices of Connecting Lines.

GOODWIN'S VBBKL.Y- 3 k S H THE NEW SUPERINTENDENT. Smith "Have you heard of the changes of the management on the Wise Guy mine?" Rogers "No; what are they?" Smith "The directors have elected Professor Knowitall, superintendent." Rogers "And pray, who is he?" Smith "He is a scientist. For a- time he was professor of Bacteriology in the Pasteur Institute in Paris." Rogers "What countryman is he?" Smith "He is a Bulgarian." Rogers "He speaks English all right I suppose?" Smith "Not a word except a few slang words he picked up from the sailors as he was coming over in a sail ship." Rogers "How is he going to talk with the miners?" Smith "It is not necessary. The directors think it is better to have a superintendent that cannot get intimate with the men." Rogers "He is a great miner, I suppose." Smith "Not a bit of it. He does not know a pick from an anchor. He was brought up a silk weaver. He began to study the habits of silk worms and in this way got to be a bacteriologist." Rogers "Does he know anything about ma chinery?" Smith "Nothing beyond a miscroscope." Rogers "The Wise Guy is a very wet mine. They have to add a couple of steam pumps at every new level; the pitch of the mine is sharp and the ground is hard to hold; what will such fi superin tendent do with such a property? He will depend upon his foreman I suppose." Smith "Not at all. Ho insists upon taking en tire control and he proposes to put the undet ground workings in the hands of two or three other weavers that camo over in the ship with him." Rogers "Are the directors crazy?" Smith "No, they say that they have found out that the really effective men are those who know nothing of the business they undertake to run." Rogers "What about the stockholders, are they satisfied?" Smith "Oh, no, they are furious. A hundred of them waited on the directors yesterday to pro test against the appointment." Rogers "What did the directors say?" Smith "They told the stockholders to mind their own affairs, that they were directors and would run the mine their way until the next annual election, which does not come off until next March." Rogers "How did the directors find this 1 chump?" Smith "He applied for the place through an. in terpreter." Rogers "What in the world led him to think he could direct the working of a great mine?" Smith "The interpreter explained that the man ha! applied for citizenship; that as soon as he could get his citizenship papers he wanted to be a can iidate for the United States Senate, that he had unHrstood that no one had so good a chance for that office as a mining superintendent and that if he ould be elected superintendent he would spend H his salary in giving entertainments." Rogers "Did the directors elect him on that H shosing?" H Smith "Yes, after several meetings in which H th- matter was all talked over." lagers "It is the strangest proceeding I ever htc a of." H nith "It is a trifle out of the ordinary. There H is mother queer feature about it. He was elected j lar Friday. On Saturday, Jones, one of the di- H ret, rs lifted the mortgage from his house. Per- H kin- another director, bought a new perfecting Prt for his newspaper. Jensen, a third director, nt to town, got blind drunk and lost $4000 in a bra. r game. Von Switzer, another director, paid $70- i for a jjai interest in a sausage factory and Be De Pue, another, opened a wine store in Rag Bag Alley." Rogers "Does this man know anything about our country?" Smith "Nothing in the least." Rogers "Has he any appreciation of our free institutions?" Smith "Not the least. Indeed, he is a Mussul man and thinks all our people are "dogs of in fidels. Rogers "Why does he desire to be a Senator of the United States?" Smith "The interpreter says he has been told that it is the biggest thing he can get for the money." Rogers "But if he gets it what will he do in a body where he cannot speak a word of English?" Smith "Oh that does not worry him; he has been told that there are lots of them there who have no especial knowledge and who cannot speak intelligent English to save their lives." Rogers "Queer world this, Smith?" Smith "The queerest that a man ever saw. SAN PEDRO AND HOT AIR RAILROAD. Mr. Editor: "Hope deferred, maketh the heart sick," was said long ago. Was it not three years ago that Senator Clark of Montana came here and wanted Pioneer Square for a railroad terminus? Did he not say then that he wanted it more as an evidence of good will than for its intrinsic value? I had a lead and silver mine in Deep Creek, 200 miles west, and my friend O'Reilly had a copper mine in Washington county, 350 miles south, and did they not tell us that the road would run close, to both mines? Did not the friends of Mr. Clark assure us that his income was ?1,000,000 a month; that there was no occasion to sell bonds; that Mr. Clark would take them all; that by putting all the men possible to work at both ends of the proposed road and buying the costliest materials, there could not be enough work carried on to absorb the multi-millionaire's regular income? We, my friend O'Reilly and myself, have been waiting patiently but we have not seen the road or even a beginning of it. O'Reilly is becoming discouraged and is saying he fears Bob Sloan was right when he called it "the great Hot Air," and I do not feel very well myself, but I have one comfort, the road is as near my mine as it is O'Reilly's. Can you give us any light on the matter, Mr. Editor? Yours Anxiously, "Miner." We are sorry we cannot give the information de sired in the foregoing. We suggest to "Miner" that he write to Mr. Whittemore, the attorney of the road, for information. He will And Mr. Whitte more most courteous, and he will get specific news touching the progress of the road or the reasons why it is not progress, or when it will probably begin to progress. The time is about up when we were promised we could enter a sleeper and, without a jolt, be landed among the orange groves of Sour' ern California next day. From present appearances the preliminaries are not yet all fixed, but they are progressing. If we were to make a guess we should say that inasmuch as there will be a Senatorial election in the regular business of the Utah Legislature early in January, 1905, the construction of the road, from this end ought to begin about the first of May, 1904, or say long enough prior to election to permit the graders to vote the Legislative ticket that year. Our corre spondent should not become discouraged. Greatx enterprises need much preliminary deliberation in order that no mistalces later will have to be paid for. Then tho testimony Is direct that work has begun on the ocean terminus, that it has been pushed out toward Mr. Clark's sugar farm and factory, some thirty miles, and that one train of most elegant cars has been purchased. That sure ly must be accepted as an evidence of good faith. The only really discouraging feature is the natural problem which is suggested by the rule of three J H which stated in figures is as follows: m BB "As thirty miles is to 850 miles so Is three years 8 H to the answer" and as we figure the matter out it J j H means tho. road will be finished in eighty-five It ''I years, which is a good while for some of us to Im H wait before visiting the orange groves, while no I I J iH man can tell what the price of either lead, silver i 7 S or copper will bo then. However, it is possible H that a successful electrical engine will be in- f- H vented before that time that will not mind heavy I J lH grades, and then, Sam Gllson declares, that his U "JH flying machine will be in successful operation f i :H probably next spring, hence we tell our corre- j, H spondent not to permit the deferring a little of f H hope to make his heart sick. if jH A TROUBLED OUTLOOK. I We read of the commencement exercises of our H high schools, colleges and universities; we think i H of the school-house at each cross-road; we listen a' 3;. v H o the rumbling of the perfecting press and think j'fc I of tne millions of people that are given the news utf daily and become proud of our country and its lit '''I wonderful advancement. But there are some H rather discouraging features after all. We do not 1 y fl forget that John L. Sullivan drew bigger houses If I than Booth and Barrett combined; there is abund- f WH ant proof that a few yellow journals have more I f H patrons than a hundred newspapers conducted on If H high lines and .without sensations. We boast of H f I the integrity of our countrymen, but see high U 'fl offices purchased every year; we see employers and I jf $'S' fl employees drawing further apart; we see nearly lljl'H four hundred thousand immigrants landing in !f?B New York city annually and know that two-thirds j I- j 'j of the immigration in late years has come from m H countries that for centuries have been deplorable m fl because of ignorance, and whose people have been T I Tfl bowed under the double slavery of king-craft and Bff'H priest-craft. m fl In some respects, at least, the prospect is not H very cheering. On the other hand science Is open- Wl I ing the doors to new treasures daily and inven- w fl tion Is perfecting machinery to such an extent t that rich employers depend less and less upon w n .fl human hands and more and more upon arms of jilil'l steel. Again, the men of 1812 fought better than I jjj Ji'l the men of 1776; the men who went to Mexico in n jL'ij 3 1 1846 fought better than the men of 1812; the men i.T'r of 1861-65 on both sides left records the highest J ever made by fighting races, and we keep in mind i If I that when the call came for volunteers to fight I m fl Spain, the response was something as magnificent i. j'M and solemn as ever was seen 011 this sphere. It llMH was clear that the American race, no matter what mV 4'E1 might bo their weaknesses, stood in the fore-front mk$ fl of nations as a martial race. afh. t wJ ftr1' BB But the spectacle made in war, even the won- "wlf fl ders beheld In Manila Bay, the greater wonders 91 j displayed off Santiago and the fury of the assaults H9 on El Cancy and San Juan Hill were not so grand I d$,9 as is the daily splendor of the movements of the t Ib!1P great industries of our country. The boom of mills, Iif the rush of trains, the roar of all the industries f fl that go to feed the world and to increase its HI ji JijM treasures never before had a parallel, and in the lf 119 meantime accumulated wealth is adding daily .to SI 1 if9 the stature of its golden throne and the doors are f fpH closing against those who have untrained Intel- KfJt'fff lects and who depend only upon their hands for a aJLal living. What is to be the outcome of all this?' It 'If IJrafl seems to us that all labor must become skilled or rlljflKfl lost in the fearful upheaval; it seems to us that all IIbIbbh poor men should try to obtain a few acres of land f If 9H to cultivate as an anchor for home. For the chil- llaHI dren there is no hope except through training them lliiinfiH with such gifts of brain and hands that they can HHbsV climb above the competitions of mere physical H workers, for money, machinery, Invention and hBI science are more and more swiftly combining and flfll it is only through the realm of mind that the poor fl can hope to elevate themselves above the grinding Hbhb of these mills of the gods that rule modern men HB and perform the world's rushing work.

p1' i 4 OODWIN'S WBBKLY. HI ANECDOTES OF JOHN W. MACKAY. If U H I j jit llWft!3? BmiR' HM Ir Iackay liad some queer moods. He was K, i II' hot tempered and anything like an imputation of BH'M llia business methods stung him like a wasp. h Mnflt When the big bonanza began to decrease in pro- HL !L ceeds there were people who intimated that it Hfr 111 was but a trick to iear the stck and a iaw was Hi! m passed by the Nevada Legislature compelling all KJ 1 T deep mines to admit stockholders twice a month fa :rf for examination of the mine. There was a very Hjij;' i f wealthy broker in Virginia City whom Mr. Mackay H h did not like. After the passage of the law this H I broker was among the first to demand admission Hi J l ;jj into the lower levels. Hi u, f t The Comstock levels are so hot that one going H n jS into any of the mines, even on a hot summer day H tjii', f'S and remaining there half an hour will, on being IHnh f hoisted out into the surface atmosphere, feel a HI ,j chilly sensation. Of course, men in the mines per- Hftp1'; '1 spire so profusely that ordinary clothing would HHe'a i I be ruined if worn there. Hit mm t"e rue was nS aS established that H91 1 fflji visitors would go to a room set aside for the pur- HHalfwrS? pose, take off their clothing and don a coarse suit, H il numbers of which were hanging conveniently on Hl f -ue wa On emerging the clothes worn were Hajf I I thrown off and immediately taken away to the flRfr,, I f laundry; the visitor would take a bath, put on his H! I own clothing, take a drink of whisky if he desired; Hi 1 k. then, after waiting a few minutes could safely go IKk H about his business. IBShH Well, as said above, this broker presented him- HH self, doffed his own clothing, donned a rough suit HflnHN and was lowered into the mine. Mr. Mackay, so BBHH I soon as the cage started down went to the "bath HhRHH i and dressing room and said to the attendant, "Do you know the man who just went down into the mine?" "Oh, yes," was the reply, "Mr. a fine gentleman." "He may be," said Mr. Mackay, "but when he comes up and throws off his clothes you see that they are burned." "Why, Mr. Mackay," said the man, "Mr. is always care fully and cleanly dressed." "No matter," was the short response, "You burn the clothing. I do not want any friend of mine ever to put on clothes that that blankety blankety blank has ever worn." Mr. Mackay once took offense at a man with whom he had long been on friendly terms with and did not speak to him for a month. Finally he sent a messenger asking the man to call at his office. As he entered the office Mr. Mackay held up a box of his cigars and said, "Take a cigar." The man complied. "Take a dozen of them," said Mackay and added, "We all make d d fools of ourselves when we get mad." That was all that was ever said about tho trouble between them. When Mr. Mackay was just beginning to come into prominence as a financial factor, the late Senator Sharon was king of the Comstock. He was a small man physically, always in delicate health, always hot tempered and sometimes was as arrogant as a turkey cock. On the other hand, Mr. Mackay was five feet nine and three-quarters inches in height, weighed 162 pounds, was muscled like a tiger and hard as iron, a natural althete; more, he had tho carriage of a trained soldier and an eye like the eyes of the Arab steeds told of in the Prince of India that "looked the sun in the face without winkine." One day these two men disagreed about the management of some mine in which both were in terested. Mr. Sharon became angry and was in prudent enough to say to Mr. Mackay: "I wii make you pack your blankets out of this camp b fore very long." Mr. Mackay looked at the littlH king for a minute and then slowly said: "Yot will? Well, when you dol will still have a might advantage over you. I can do it." He spoke h such a tone as a prize fighter might use to a sicl woman who had insulted him. A few days later one morning Mr. Mackay me "Billie" Wood, one of Mr. Sharon's attorney Wood said "You look troubled this morning, Mi Mackay, what is it?" "Not much," was the reply, "only if I do no get $60,000 by 3 o'clock I shall lose and it wi! be worth $3,000,000 in sixty days. "Come with m to my office," said Wood. Arrived there Wooc excused himself, asking Mr. Mackay to wait fo Him. In five minutes he returned with a ceitifi cate of deposit for $60,000 in Mr. Mackay's nam and a note at sixty days for the amount am handed both papers to Mr. Mackay. "Where does this money come from?" asked thf astonished man. "From Mr. Sharon," was th reply and he added, "Some men ought never I quarrel and two of them are you and Willian bharon." Ihey never did after that. In th Lharon campaign for the Senate Mr. Mackay spec tens of. thousands of dollars for the Sharon ticke and when the California bank was temporarily w locked Mackay stood by Sharon like a brother. Mr. Mackay never referred to his charities, bu there was one which caused him a vast deal o merriment, though it was at his own expense 'ihere was a bright, jolly, eccentric, witty, ne'er dt eJ named Jason Baldwin on the Comstock. Everj Lody liked him but he never could "catch on" an' was always in arrears. One day there was a bui ness meeting in the Bonanza office to which seven. gentlemen had gathered. After the business was over those present began to discuss available raci for candidates for the city election, which was to take pla'ce in a few days. At last Mr. Mackay swung around from his desl and asked: "What are you going to do for Baldwin?" Col. Osbiston replied, "He wants to run for con stable but has no money." "Well," said Mackay, "send him down and I will give him $500. If we do not get him an office we will have to make a place for him in the mines and he is not much of a success as a miner." Osbiston went up town met Baldwin and said "Jason, why do you not run for constable?" '1 have not a uiamed cent," was the reply. "Hov much do you need?" asked Frank. "Two nun dred and fifty dollars," said Baldwin. "Well," replied Osbiston, "go down to Mackaj and he will give it to you." "Yes he will," said Baldwin incredulously. "He will fire me out of the office. "No, it is all fixed, go and see him," said Frank. Baldwin thought, the matter over and then summoning all his cheek, he went to the Bonanza office and walking up to the rail said, "Mr. Secre tary, will you kindly inform Mr. John W. Mackay that Mr. Jason Baldwin would like to interview him for a few minutes." He was shown in, whereupon he said, "Mr. Mackay, I want to borrow $250." "You want to borrow?" (with heavy accent on the borrow.) "What are your securities Baldwin?" "They are a little thin," was Baldwin's repl). "but there is just no end to them." "You would give your note wouldn't you?" said Mr. Mackay "Why, certainly," said Baldwin. Mackay 'drew up a note, filled in a check, tore tho check out and pushing both papers across tM table said "Sign the note Baldwin and there's your money." Baldwin caught up a pen and signed the not& "Had you not better read that note, Baldwin?'

Mackay two hundred and 'jpftj dollars with interest at the rate of 5 per cent "ler day until paid." m Dropping the note Baldwin looked across the llf table and said: "Make it $500 Mackay and put it mt 10 per cent a minute." n l Bennie Hereford was a clerk in the Con V office. imlt went East for a bride, was absent a few weeks, 'brought his bride home and next morning drew a check in his own favor and presented it at the jBbank. The teller told him he was sorry, but the ijorders were strict and no overdrafts were honored. II "But I have $3500 on deposit," said Hereford. "I Mim sorry," was the response, "but the morning you jllleft for tne East Mr Mackay called, said he feared there was some irregularity in your accounts and drew your money. Of course he is entirely re sponsible if you can show that everything is O. K." Hereford rushed down to Bonanza office and in mingled fear and wrath demanded what had been found wrong in his accounts and why his money had been drawn. "You had $3500 on deposit you say," said Mackay. "Yes," tremblingly answered Hereford. "I was sure there was something wrong. No clerk in this office ever before had $3500 on de posit." "But what is there wrong?" demanded Hereford. "How much was Con. Virginia stock when you went away?" asked the Bonanza king. "About $4," was the reply. "How much is it this morning?" asked the chief. "I heard it quoted at $32 on the street," said Hereford. "Well," said Mackay, "when you went away I thought $3500 was not much to get married on, so I took your money and hought 2000 shares on a margin in your name. If you need a little money and think the profit is sufficient all you have to do is unload. But don't give me away, Bennie, rather go home and tell your bride how smart you were to buy Con. Virginia at $4.00." N Mr. Mackay and Mr. Sharon owned the Virginia City Enterprise in the '70's. Just after the crash of the California bank, when Sharon was struggling under the wreck and when it was said he had borrowed $1,000,000 of Gov. Stanford to help get the bank on its feet again, Stephen Gage of the Southern Pacific called upon the Enterprise edi tor, explained that a joint resolution would in a few days he introduced into the Nevada Legisla ture asking Congress to "buy back at $1.25 per acre all unsold railroad grant lands in Nevada. He explained that it would be a great advantage to the State as it would enable the State to have a much more desirable choice of school lands. The editor declined to entertain the proposition, though it was urged with the well-known skill of Gage, whereupon Gage took the train and went to San Francisco. Two days later a note came to the editor from -Mr. Sharon asking that if possible the proposition of Mr. Gage be set forth in the best light possible in the Enterprise. Accordingly, the proposition was stated and the Paper pointed out every possible advantage that could attach to it and was silent as to its obvious disadvantages. Next morning the editor met Mr. Mackay just as the latter in a buggy was nearing a livery stable. He sprung from the buggy, let the horse go and much excited, exclaimed, "You know d d well that is not right." (He had a little impediment in his speech and when excited his words came out to jets.) The editor in a plausible way named some of the advantages of the proposed arrange ment, at which the Bonanza king grew hotter and hotter until he burst out with: "You know the th- th-thieves have sold every d d acre except desert; that a hundred acres of it wouldn't sup port a horned toad and they want to get a dollar and a quarter for it." The conversation went on for perhaps five minutes until Macka was nearly beside himself, when the editor drew from his pocket Mr. Sharon's letter and said, "By the way, Mr. Mackay, will you not glance over this?" He caught the letter impatiently, read three lines, turned over the page, glanced at the signature, then handed it back saying, with a laugh, "Why d n it a man has a right to express his opinion has he not?" and strode away. He did not care a penny what become of the measure, but evidently he had all the morning been nursing a half sus picion that Gage "had got to" the editor. A blackmailing newspaper was for a time most abusive of the Bonanza firm. One day Mr. Mackay met the Enterprise editor and said: "Can you write something particularly mean? If you can, answer that article in the Mail that came this morning. Try to get a libel suit." In three days the editor was able to inform Mr. Mackay that the suit was filed claiming $50,000 damages. With a gleam of satisfaction in his eyes Mackay responded, "All right, only do not let up on the thieves for one holy minute, if you get a new suit every day." When Mr. Fillmore, so long passenger agent of the Southern Pacific railway, died last autumn, half San Francisco sent beautiful ilowers in sym pathy and respect to the Fillmpre home. Mr. Mackay sent Mrs. Fillmore a check for $10,000. When President Garfield died of the fund raised for Mrs. Garfield Mr. Mackay contributed $25,000. SMELTING. The State of Colorado has instituted proceedings to dissolve the smelter trust in operation in that State. That is all right in a State where the mines aro small and the terms of the trust are oppres sive. We think, however, that a better arrange ment is being made in Utah. Some of the heavy companies have already supplied themselves with reduction plants and others are preparing to do the same thing. By next spring it ought to be possible to obtain a fair price for ores in this val ley. Up to very recently a miner sending in a few tons or even a few carloads of ore has been obliged to accept whatever price the Trust pleased to name for the ore, with the result frequently of losing about 50 per cent of the real values in tle ores. This has led to the erection of outside heavy reduction plants. If the same rule prevails for another year it will have the effect -to surround the Trust works with independent smelters. One beauty of our free in stitutions is that there is no limit placed on in dividual effort and no oppression that individual effort cannot eventually overcome. T. Kearns ought to get along pretty well in Paris. His French can't be any worse than his English. A Burlington Denver-Chicago special the other day ran from Eckly to Way, Colorado, 14.8 miles, at the fearful speed of ninety-nine miles an hour. The track has many curves and it was a heavy train of engine and nine cars. The engineer was J. V. O'Connell and the stolcor Alex. M. McLean. The time was verified by several watches. The picture of O'Connell is that of a self-contained man whom one can readily see would say without emo tion: "O, well, we are late and it is best to let the engine make up the time if it can." Such a look as Dewey wore when in Manila Bay he said to Gridley: "Mr. Gridley, if you are ready you may begin." McLean's faco says plainly enough: "O, well, if you want to break your neck I'll give you the steam." It was a great run. If there arn't enough places for the Elks to sleep, the ticks up Parley's canyon might servo, j.r The Lady With A Margin.

Salt Lake City is justly noted for its myriad of pleasure resorts within easy reach of tourists and the pleasure loving public. This enviable reputa tion should be fostered by the closest attention to the ordinary proprieties of clean enjoyment and anything which lowers the high-grade of this class of entertainment should be promptly sup pressed as a nuisance which cannot but redound to the lasting shame of our fair city. The insati able greed for gain which predominates at some of these resorts, resulting in lowering the standard of morality alike among old and young, is amplified beyond the bounds of decency at Calder's park. There is nothing clean or wholesome in the whole regime of so-called attractions which flood street cars with their flaming notices and cater to the lowest desires of the worst element of hoodlums and their "loidies" with which Salt Lake has ever been infested. Passing over the miserable service of the street cars which ply too and fro between business centers and the park, and which are the cause of constant unfavorable comment on the part of visiting tourists, a cursory sketch of an evening's pleasure at the alleged "resort" from a most conservative standpoint may enligliten some of our citizens, particularly mothers, as to the immorality of this putrid blot on the fair name of Salt Lake's resorts. From 8 o'clock until midnight the grounds are at the mercy of a drunken, noisy, foul-mouthed gang of young toughs, who, not content to confine their ribald language among themselves, make passing ladies the butts of their vile remarks, crowding, jostling and leering at every lady whether with or without escort and exchanging ifilthy jests with their equally depraved female com panions The dance hall is a high carnival of shameless vice, running rampant. Young girls not yet out of short dresses, ogle every man whom they pass, boldly challenge them to dance, indulge in obscene language whenever they can find any one who will listen to them and conduct them selves worse than the women of the town would ever think of doing. The dark shades to be found above the bridge along the banks of the lake are lined with young boys and girls, lying on the grass in positions and conditions which they would scarcely care to have their parents find them. Boys and girls in droves spend their evenings in this immoral resort, drinking, flirting and wallowing in the vice with which the place is steeped. The so-called vaudeville, with -its suggestive Darn-storming artists invites the usual crowd of young people within the canvas, pandering to degenerate appetites by their lewd songs, filthy monologues and general rotten class of entertain ment. The catch-penny fakes which encircle the ground are on a par with the general personnel of similar so-called resorts, and the sights which come under the observation of a sight-seer in a casual stioll around the grounds are too disgust ing to be described in detail. There is but little doubt that the parents of these young girls and boys who are permitted to visit this filthy resort night after night, cannot be cognizant of the danger to which they are per mitting their children to be exposed in passing evenings without proper chaperonage within the grounds of Calder's park.

It is too far away from the alfalfa fields. The management will not release any performer to go on the Orpheum circuit till the San Fran cisco people come up to the right figure. The figure we're getting from the management is the double cross. 3l Dramatic Notes. A ston' is going the rounds of the press to the effect that a young lady who witnessed the yacht scene in "The Defender" became so badly afflicted with mal de mer as to necessitate her escort re questing the return of his entrance free. The manager restored her equilibrium with a pint of Mumm's. The next in order will be a demand for the return of price of tickets based on gastronomic desires awakened by witnessing a stage feed. Anna Chance of vaudeville fame will star in "The Gossips," a play written for her by her hus band, Charles B. Grapewine, who thinks he has a fair Chance to win.

r 'I If GOODWIN'S WB33KLY. 7 ifr Literary Notes. A new volume by Marie Corelli, entitled "Tem poral Power," is about to emerge from the hands of I)odd, Mead Co. It has been intimated by one of the would be knowing ones that the wierd stories emenating from the versatile pen of this prolific writer re ceive the stimulus of aii Eastern drug in their weawng. Were this truth rather than fiction one might say with the immortal Abe Lincoln when Grant's leaning towards the bottle which cheers was reported as against tho general, "I wish that some of the rest of the officers would buy the same kind of whiskey." Jerome K. Jerome has embarked In his first long novel venture and Dodd, Mead Co. are bringing out his "Paul Kelver." J. K. J. knows the world and its strength and weaknesses and can narrate its lights and shades with a pen dipped, in honey or vitrol and his short stories line up with the lives of the average men of today in nature's color ings. Book critics are congratulating their fellows on H the influx of unique bindings for the coming fall D books and are predicting the eclipse of paper- H covered editions. The demand for cheap editions B is increasing and as goes the demand so must re- H spond the supply. B v H The Flemming H. Revel Co., Chicago publishers, H have given a prominent place in their stock to B "Those Black Diamond Men," the unique story H from the pen of William P. Gibbons, illustrating B in graphic finesse life among the dusky laborers B m the anthracite coal fields. H B A. L. Burt Co., New Yrk publishers, report B that the sale of Kipling's writings have fallen off B in sale to next to nothing. m B Thompson Thomas of Chicago report sales B for last year of 40,000 copies of "Peck's Bad Boy," B 50,000 of "Shams" and 60,000 of "Remarks by Bill Nje," while the- old-time tale, "The Hoosier B Schoolmaster," illustrated by Opper, has reached B a sale of 20,000 volumes since August last. Bl B Boston publishers roport an increasing demand B in books bound in burnt wood, burnt leather, limp B leather and lizard skin. B B Dana Estes Co. of Boston are having a great B run on Laura E. Richards' latest production, "Mrs. B Tree," a sequel to "Goeffery Strong," and predict B for it a larger sale than accorded to any of her B former writings, although they have reached an B aggregate sale of over 600,000 volumes. H! B Sew ell's "Black Beauty" is reported as reaching Ba sale of 50,000 each year. Its publishers, the B Henry Altomus Company, report the surprising B fact that -the imposing folios illustrated by Dore B are no longer salable. B The typical modern novel that deals in million- B aires and sycophants, society and politics, may B not be elevating, but it is awfully quotable.

As he amalgamated patent soaps, non-intoxicating whiskies, ineffectual pills, so he had amalgamated all the vulgarities, and inci dentally all the mistakes of his predecessors. His had been a mania for amalgamation. Such a rumor seemed scarcely improbable in the case of a man who posed as a financial providence. If the nation wanted any little things, such as an ironclad or a public park, Taubman always seemed to have an ironclad or a public park for which he had for the moment no possible personal use. The twentieth century appeared to be the ago of innocence, and Taubman apparently was the millennium. It will be a long time before the pub lic will understand that when a man gives away things to the public it is because he intends to give the public away. Laird Lee of Chicago are publishing the latest of Opie Read's pen pictures from the blue-grass country, entitled "The Starbucks," which promises to rank with tills charming writer's past success ful portrayals of Kaintuck life. "Prisoners of Russia," a powerful story of Rus sian penal life, dealing mainly with the island of Sakhalien, where only the most desperate convicts are confined, makes out a strong case for the penal code among this class of degenerates. The well known standing of Dr. Howard as a leading peno logist entitles his opinion to a hearing and tho comparisons drawn between Russian and Ameri can methods of practical reformation In prison life are startling, nor does Russia suffer by the com parison. D Appleton Co., of New York are pub lishing "Prisoners of Russia." "The Little Brother," the maiden effort of Joslah Flynt in his vivid portrayal of tramp life in all its grotesque, pathetic and realistic colorings deserves more than passing notice. While tho slang and language of hoboism are rather too plain ly in evidence, the real inner life and longings of the man who failed and sought oblivion in the obscurity of tramp life are vividly portrayed. The little runaway boy who is taken in charge by the typical Dusty Roads and in the midst of filth and dirt, hunger and deprivation, criminality and danger, retains the simplicity and purity of home life, is strikingly portrayed and the closing chap iters bring the wanderer back to the old fireside where the story and his life close together in mingled pathos and simplicity of childhood's fear less entrance Into the great unknown. Mrs. Cotes's new novel, "Those Delightful Americans," is winning its way rapidly in tho good graces of Eastern readers.

It was given by H p r.y the oflicers and ladies of the Fort and Was the so- KNl'fvi cial success of the summer. The grounds were Mr!$i f! quaintly beautiful, hundreds of grotesque Chinese HKj'H lanterns being arranged among the trees. The fjUf band was outslde during the leception and the Hi iff "f1 originality of the whole affair was the subject of tfh much conversation.

An interesting event of the week was the mar riage on Wednesday of Carrie A. Mooney and Eu gene E. Kahn, son of the late Col. Kahn, at the home of the mother of the bride. The ceremony was performed by Rabbi Jacob son of Shreveport, La. The bridal party stood under a canopy of carna tions and sweet peas and those flowers, with palms were arranged in profusion throughout the rooms. At 5 o'clock MJss Osborne played the wedding inarch, and the party entered. Miss Esther Morris was bridesmaid and Henry Kahn, brother of the frroom, best man.. A wedding supper followed the ceremony and was attended by the families and intimate friends. Mr. and Mrs. Kahn went to California and will be home September 1st Monday evening the grand opening of the new Elks building will be the occasion of an excep tionally fine musical entertainment in the elegant new hall. Prof. Goddard will render a solo, the Fort Douglas band will give several selections, the First Ward quartette, oensisting of Messrs.

The splendid singing of Miss Edna Duncan at the Tabernacle Tuesday morning was the subject of much comment. Mrs. Julia Kimball and Miss Kimball have in vitations out for a musicale to be given Monday evening. It is to be in honor of Mr. Woodmansee, who leaves for the East next month.

I GOODWINS YtfJBBKDY. 9 jj' I r w I' Hudson MTL Salt Lake City, July 23. l Trading on the exchange this week has shown nion public interest than for many months. The speculative stocks have been quite active at small ad ances. Tintic shipments for this week showed an im provement over last week and wore as follows: Alaska, 1 carload; Bullion Beck, 6; Carisa, 7; Drafion Iron mine, 5; Eagle Blue Bell, 3; Gemini, 5; Grand Central, 12; Mammoth, 7; May Day, 1; South Swansea, 3; Uncle Sam, 4; Yankee Con., G; the Mammoth mill shipped 2 carloads, of concen trates and the May Day Jigs 2. Con. Mercur continued to advance on good re ports from the strike in the Electric tunnel. The directors declared the regular 3 cent dividend pay- Iable on the 9th of August. The books close July 2Gth. The closing quotations on the stock were $2.04 1-2 bid, ?2.07 1-2 asked. Grand Central has made the largest advance during the week, on an important strike being made on the 540-foot level and reports that they would ship 3000 tons of second-grade ore a month. A hpavy stockholder who visited the property dur ing the week reports that although the new ore body which was struck in the King William ground had not been opened up, it could be compared with the Butterfly stope, which produced $1,000,000 worth of ore. The stock sold today for $5 and a .still further advance is looked for with develop ment of the King William ore body. The damage to the Daly West mine, upon in vestigation, was found to be of less importance than first supposed and will not exceed $1000. The cause of the stock remaining weak is due to the expectation of heavy damage suits by heirs of the miners who lost their lives in the terrible disaster. We do not think that these will reach court, as the company has been fair in the matter so far. H hut think they will be settled by arbitration. The clobing quotations were $51 bid, offered at $51.15. Daly-Judge advanced the first of the week, re cording sales as high as $12, but on account of selling orders by small holders who are taking good profits, has declined to $10.75. We under stand that the mine is looking better than ever and that dividends will be paid before January 1, 1903. The California Mining Company of Utah has transferred its mine, etc., to the California Mining and Milling Company of Nevada, with W. I. Sny der president and C. W. Hartley secretary. The mine and mill are giving employment to twelve men. We are informed by a local expert who visited the property Tuesday that development work is being pushed in the lower tunnel, while the mill is treating the second-class ore. The stock sold today at 25 cents. The Sacramento Mill is reported to be treating 100 tons of ore a day and working nicely for a II new plant. The stock has been selling from -31c to 32 l-2c. H The Ben Butler assessment of 1 cent per share became delinquent the 23d. The stock is very B strong from 10 l-2c to lie, closing with 10 l-2c bid, offeied at 10 7-8c. j Cmtury made quite an advance, selling today at H 28 l-4c, closing with 27 3-4c bid, offered at 28 l-4c. H Northern Light sold as high as 6 cents during H the week, closing with sales at 5 5-8c. Wabash sold at $1.50 early in the week, but de H clinf a today to $1.45.

I fe,L 1 i Ogdeiv Letter. 1 There is quite a ripple of interest starting with reference to Republican county nominations this fall, and the usual amount of talk "ferninst" "third termers" is indulged in by the "outs." A strict enforcement of this principle would relegate County Attorney Halverson, Assessor Gibson, Clerk Hollingsworth, Sheriff Lane and Treasurer MVt&l w Chambers. Well, no, hardly; Alma has had the Oftri office so long that he can have title quieted at any HffllH i time now upon bringing suit in the proper court. Hfiiji i Besides, he is an exception to the general rule and I 2lli''J nas no one t compete with him for the nomina- H 3m j1 ijj;1 tion as even the enemies of Friday Chambers and I M I Bill concede that Alma is all right. The field is I I? 3 fir i N Pen at a11 events. None of the entries (unless it HJit 3 be Treasurer) are closed and a cordial invitation ll'l f!1 to enter the lists and compete for the prizes is flU 4 b'' extended. "The longest pole knocks the persim- flR. ft" mon." H&TfJtn One of the cleverest feats of legerdemain which Mljf!'0 Bill ever executed was his action in vetoing the HrM t$ k donation by the city of a part of City Hall square ri?!,! fora Government building site. It is related that BjJ'ff 'k 'Bill's own hand prepared the original draft of the M B-kIJ resolution from which the one passed by the Coun- Hl'if cil was drawn. That so solicitous was his Honor lilt i -or s PassaEe that he beforehand endorsed his If vf approval upon the resolution as reported by the II' rf'l'j committee. Yet, in spite of all this he unexpected- IKkJ 1 f y seems no one can fHw us curves) to the Hvj jf y ti Council sprung a veto upon them. The veto and fj j ,j Bill both fell with a dull sickening thud, for they Hj S j 3 jjj" j rolled him over and sat upon him in a way that he HP k J will probably remember until the next meeting, k j$ when he is due to slop over again.

The Fire Chief has improved in appear ance and gained considerably in courage since his I last visit. He no longer plays the bashful lover racket, nor does he make a (fire) horse play in his interviews; but comes out flatly and makes his j announcement without Avincing or mincing words. i' He is, however, properly non-committal on Sen- n atorial candidates and we agree with the Hon. i James that it is as yet quite too early to an- J nounce preferences in that direction. It is not cer- V tain that he has "retained Orator Bill to present (I his name to the convention. But he might do 3 worse. So might Bill. The uufeeling unanimity with which people of all classes accept Bills withdrawal from the Coil- il gressional race would be heart-rending to any J other than the Mayor. Not a single protest is heard to mar the accord and satisfaction over the iil( good result. The Brown people smile rather sar- i b castically, and if there are any regrets they come from this camp. The Smoot contingent rub their j hands gleefully; the Sutherland outfit doesn't look ,jji disconsolate by a long shot; but by far the most jj unkindest cut of all comes from the devoted fol- lll lowers of T.

It would furnish us inspiration. We shall also re veal some of the ins and out, the plots, machina tions, turns and contortions of the Kearns contingent. Maw and I. A young woman in a pink and white foulard beat her way past seven waiting men and got an au dience with Commissioner of Buildings Stewart. "Maw and I are greatly worried she began. "Let me introduce my chief inspector, Mr. Mc Gill," said the commissioner. "He has charge ot the Department of Worry." Mr. McGill was all attention. The young woman shoved a colonial slipper bearing a big gilt buckle out from beneath the said pink and white foulard and resumed: "Maw and I keep a boarding-house. Since the Park avenue fire we have been greatlyvorried be cause there are no fire-escapes on the building. So I came down to have you fix it." m Mr. McGill said he couldn't order the landlord to buy fire escapes unless the house contained fif teen rooms. "Oh, you're clever, I know. You can fix it if you want to," said the young woman coquettishly. Thus inspired, Mr. McGill found a way. He went to the boarding-house and contrived fifteen rooms. One big, old-fashioned room was cut up into four rooms, each suitable for a gentleman with a hall bedroom income. Another room was made into two. An inspector was sent to examine the house. He counted the rooms, and reported that fire-escapes were necessary. The owner was notified and bought a pretty little set of fire escapes. Mr. McGill went calmly along the tedious routine of his official life, confident that he had made Maw and the contents of the pink and white foulard happy. But yesterday the gilt buckles pattered in again. "My," said the young woman, "You've made an awful mess of it!" Mr. McGill arched his eyebrows inquiringly. "Yes. Maw and I are worried more than ever now," she went on. "The agent was over this morning and showed us a clause in the lease say ing we must pay for all improvements of that sort.

GOODWIN'S WEEKLY. M fl Society Continued. 7 The Misses June and Elizabeth Mclntyre enter tained at an informal dance "Wednesday evening. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Tibbals gave a large dinner at their home Thursday evening. Mrs. Frank Knox and children are home from California. Mrs. W. H. Donnell and Mrs. Dana T. Smith are at Brighton. Mr. and Mrs. Morris Somner and Miss Bergh of Denver have returned from Provo canyon. Mr. Edward Bennett, formerly of this city, but now with the Piedmont Air Line at San Francisco, was in the city during the week on his way to the coast from New York. Sidney Hooper and Vivian McCune have returned from the north. They did not find Tracy. "Van Fletch," in a letter to the Argonaut of July 28th, says that the Fourth of July was so widely observed in London that Yankees felt very mucn at home. He noted one place where a flag com posed of half of the Stars and Stripes and half of the Union Jack was displayed. Golf. It was the writer's good fortune to witness the recent national championship tournament on the fl Glenview links near Chicago, including the re H raarkable game between former champion W. J. fl Travis and E. M. Byers of Pittsburg, in which the fl latter put Travis out of the running by beating him H one up in an 18-hole match. Also the final game fl between Byers and Louis James, played under fl vastly different conditions, which resulted in the H victory of the latter. Mr. Travis said after his fl disasterous game with Byers. "It is not what a man H ought to do at golf, but what he does, that counts." H While this undoubtedly holds true, yet I am never H thelcss of the conclusion that taken day in and day fl out, rain or shine, Mr. Travis was the best golfer H to swing a club during that tournament. Only fl once during the week's play did I see him make fl a really bad stroke. Occasionally he would hook H his drive a trifle, getting into the long grass at fl the side of the fair green, but invariably he re H covered beautifully, and the slight mistake never H proved expensive. His putting (and on the uneven B Glenview green this is a science in itself) was far B and away the best shown, while his long and short fl approaches were true to a degree that fairly took H the breath away from the lovers of the game who fl followed him. His drives were always low, sel H dom more than thirty or forty feet from the H ground, thus ensuring a long roll, and the dis H tances secured were rather heart-breaking to one H who is accustomed to congratulate himself on a B drive of 180 or 185 yards. B There is no discounting the ability of Louis B James, the youngster who won the championship B from Mr. Byers, or of Mr. By.ers himself. The B game the latter put up when he defeated Travis' B would have defeated ninteen out of twenty pro B fessionals. In the last round of that now cele B brated game Mr. Travis made a medal score of 39, B two strokes under bogey. Yet Byers beat him four M up on the round. Who can play golf to beat that? B But (and hero is the great difference between the B two) Travis did not vary more than two or three B strokes from that medal score during the week's R Play, while Byers was woefully off on his putting fl on several occasions. Had he putted in his game fl with James the way he did with Travis he would B have won with two or three up. B James barely qualified with a medal score of 94 fl in the first day's play. After that he played splen B did golf. Indeed, I could discover no point of fl Wea' in his gamej unless it was a tendency to B bo m, -iy Witn ks drives in the first four or fl flve hoi j a game. His iron work was amazing B iy accurate. This in fact won him the champion B ship. James is only 19 years old. Wait two or B tnree years, until the strength of matured man hood thickens his limbs, and the experience of tournament playing steadies his nerves. Then he will be a champion indeed. I GOLFSOME. None But the Brave Deserve the Fair. Hilda Christensen had three lovers, Hans Neil son, Swin Jensen and Canute Adamson. Hilda did not know whether she loved Hans or Canute best, but she was indifferent to Swin for he was shy and poor and not what might be called beau tiful to look at. She had an interview at 4 p. m. July 23rd with Canute. It took place behind her father's smoke-house. The afternoon sun played upon the cheek of Canute and she said to herself: "My, but he is lovely." Canute informed her that he had saved up $130, that he was to have a one third interest in his father's crop and wanted to marry Hilda next day at Calder's. Hilda agreed to give hiin an answer the next afternoon. About 6 p. m. the same day Swin came by and seeing Hilda outside the corral, where she was milking the cow, told her that if she, would marry him he would relieve her of that work. She answered scornfully that se guessed so, that he had no cow. About 8 p. m. Hans came along, called Hilda into the garden, informed her that he had finished paying for his team and wagon and had a contract which would leave him net $2.50 per day and wanted to marry her right away. Hilda promised that she would give him an answer sure next day. All three, Hans, Swin and Canute, determined to celebrate Pioneer day at Calder's. Swin and Canute reached the grounds early. Canute took some beer and treated Swin. Then Canute pro posed a little game of Old Sledge. Swin consented. He lost the first game but won the second. Then Canute was vexed and proposed to raise the stakes. Swin aid ho agreed and in two hours had won the $130 and Canute was full of beer. Then Hans came, and learning how things had gone, took some beer and then proposed to play a game or two with Swin himself. Swin "was agree able and in two hours more had won Han's team and wagon and had succeeded in getting both Hans and Canute roaring drunk. Just then Hilda came upon the ground. Hans and Canute were both in bad humor and both very drunk. They each tried to talk with Hilda but were simply maudlin and she turned away dis gusted. Then Swin approached, told Hilda that he had never boasted but that really he had a good deal of money, some $130 and a fine team and wagon and wanted her for a wife. Hilda gave one more look at the two inebriates, then jumped into the wagon and started with Swin for a marriage license. Moral: It couldn't have happened at Saltair, be cause Saltair has no beer. Mr. George Hanson of Ogden town is visiting in the vicinity of Clear Lake. This may be a pleasure trip, but possibly there are some who do not look upon it with a great deal of joy. With the Elk's convention over and the hot weather ready to quit, politics will begin in earn est. There is a great deal going on in the minds of those directly interested, but the knives will not be drawn in earnest for about a month. The Elk edition of Goodwin's Weekly will be the only authorized souvenir of the Elk conven tion. It is the only publication given official sanc tion by the executive committee of the lodge.
